That is exactly what Bluetooth is designed to do. Bluetooth is a short range wireless standard that is replacing past generations of wireless standards like RF and infrared. What makes Bluetooth special? Among other things, is it is one standard; therefore, one adapter can handle multiple Bluetooth devices. </p> <p align="center"><a href="atruereview/bluetake/01.jpg"><img src="atruereview/bluetake/01th.jpg" width="180" height="250" border="0" alt="Bluetake BT500 White Bluetooth Mouse"></a><br> <font size="-1">Click on image for larger picture</font> </p> <p>Right now, one of the most common Bluetooth implementations is the wireless bluetooth mouse, like the Bluetake BT500 Bluetooth Mouse. This review will be looking at the white version.</p> <p><b>Packaging:</b></p> <p align="center"><a href="atruereview/bluetake/02.jpg"><img src="atruereview/bluetake/02th.jpg" width="170" height="250" border="0" alt="Bluetake BT500 White Bluetooth Mouse"></a><br> <font size="-1">Click on image for larger picture</font> </p> <p>Bluetake's BT500 Bluetooth Mouse comes packaged in a snap shut blister package. On the front of the bluetooth mouse's packaging is the name of the product and a short list of its characteristics. In the bottom right corner is Bluetake's company logo. The back of Bluetake's package features general information about the bluetooth mouse.</p> <p><strong>Contents:</strong></p> <ul> <li> BT500 White Mouse</li> <li> Driver CD</li> <li> Setup guides</li> <li> Two AAA batteries</li> </ul> <p><strong>Features:</strong></p> <p>Features and specifications for Bluetake's BT500 Bluetooth Mouse can be seen on Bluetake's <a href="http://www.bluetake.com/products/BT500.htm">web site</a>. </p> <ul> <li> Bluetooth Human Interface Device (HID) supported</li> <li> Small size and exquisite design</li> <li> Scroll wheel with pairing LED indicator</li> <li> Power on/off switch for power management</li> </ul> <p><strong>Specifications:</strong></p> <ul> <li> Bluetooth Class II: 10 meters free space</li> <li> Spread Spectrum: FHSS (Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum)</li> <li> Carrier Frequency: 2.402 ~ 2.480GHz</li> <li> Data transfer rate up to 723Kbps</li> <li> Power: DV 3V (2x AAA battery)</li> <li> Dimensions: 85.2 x 50 x 32.6mm</li> <li> Weight: 64g</li> <li> Resolution: 800dpi</li> <li> System Support: Win XP/2000/ME/98SE, Mac OS X/10.2.6 or later<br> </li> </ul> <p><strong>Description:</strong></p> <p align="center"><a href="atruereview/bluetake/03.jpg"><img src="atruereview/bluetake/03th.jpg" width="250" height="223" border="0" alt="Bluetake BT500 White Bluetooth Mouse"></a><br> <font size="-1">Click on image for larger picture</font> </p> <p>Bluetake's BT500 bluetooth mouse is shaped like a pear and made of white plastic. For those who prefer something besides white, the BT500 bluetooth mouse also comes in blue. The top of the bluetooth mouse is shinny and smooth with the usual two buttons and a scroll wheel on the front. The bottom of the mouse has soft velvety texture and features four round Teflon feet, optical cutout, on/off switch, and a grey pairing button. As seen from the dimensions, Bluetake's BT500 is a very small bluetooth mouse. For those with big hands, this may not be the mouse for you. But the small size does make it the perfect laptop mouse.</p> <p align="center"><a href="atruereview/bluetake/04.jpg"><img src="atruereview/bluetake/04th.jpg" width="250" height="162" border="0" alt="Bluetake BT500 White Bluetooth Mouse"></a><br> <font size="-1">Click on image for larger picture</font> </p> <p align="right"><a href="atruereview/bluetake/mouse.php"></a> <a href="bluetake/mouse.php">Next (Setup, Usage, & Conclusion)</a></p> </div> </td> </tr> </table> </div> <div id="footer" class="clr"> <div class="rk-1"> <div class="rk-2"> <div id="the-footer">  </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </body> </html>
